I guess now I'll find out about that electric shock thing, huh LOL. I'll report my findings on my personal "experiment" to this Board.

Hi Dave,
How did you and your Dr.decide you're stable? Does that mean you no longer have anxiety- not any symptoms at all? ever?
I'm curious because in these two years I've been on various medications and I have never felt yet that I could call myself stable. I still have occasional anxiety - usually during stressful times. I don't feel I'm depressed- but when I do feel the anxiety I sometimes feel as if it's happening all over again and to me it's like starting from day one for each little set back.
Do I make any sense?
Bonnie
